Pick Gentleman Joe

Sun., Oct. 26, 2014

I don’t know Joe Pakootas, I just happen to live by the South Hill library where he held a town hall meeting Oct. 13, so I decided to find out more about him. He spoke passionately about today’s challenges and issues and, when questioned, his answers were clear, direct and precise.

I do know Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers. She has been lying to us for years. She has voted against student loan reform, workers’ rights, veterans’ benefits, Medicare, the Affordable Care Act and, amazingly, even voted against equal pay for women. Wow! She obviously does what she is told to do by her male leaders, and not her constituents.

Please do your research, if you Google “what Joe Pakootas stands for,” the facts speak for themselves. Vote for Gentleman Joe.
